dc.description.abstract | Brothers Tom and Frank Goldspink spent many years amassing a large collection of Niagara-related artwork. Since 2006, the art was displayed in the TAG Art Gallery in St. Catharines. The closure of the gallery in 2022 meant that a new home needed to be found for the collection. The art was distributed among various institutions in the Niagara Region including Brock University, the Niagara Falls History Museum, the St. Catharines Museum, and the Niagara-on-the-Lake Museum. | en_US |
